' AUGNLIN United States Patent Oice -This invention relates fto photographie cameras and more specifically to 'an improved camera forphotoidentification purposes. f l

As is well known in the art, photo-identification cameras find extensive use in educational institutions, and industrial and governmental organizations for the production of identification cards or passes. These identification cards usually contain a photograph of the person and a number'ofA relevant statistics concerning the person. The signature of the person may also be placed on the card, as may be the name of the organization issuing the card.

One of the prime requirements for a camera for photo-identification purposes is that the camera must be capable of rapid automatic continuous operation. Another requirement is that the camera be reliable so that any danger of producing an identification card having the correct statistics but the incorrect person photograph, or vice versa, is at a minimum. Further, the camera should be simple in construction and operation so thatuit may be eiciently operated by an unskilled person. Therefore, it is the object of this invention to provide 'a camera for photo-identification purposes which willfulll ofthe above noted requirements.

It' isl a feature of the present invention that the card containing the statistics concerning. the person, and the person, fare simultaneously photographed on one frame of a standard lm. This permits ease of handling of thelrn 'negative and simplifies -the processing of the iilm negative to a nished' identificationcard. Further, since the statistics, and possibly a signature, are reproduced by a photographic process, a forgery of the signature oran alteration of the' statistics is very ,difliculL Itis another feature of the invention that the images of theperson and -the statistics are both projected onto v tlielsame," side of the lm. Therefore, any problems encounteredinprojecting animage on the back side of thefilmrefavoidedf...

Itgis afurther feature of the invention that novel automaticoperating means are provided which prevents a double Vexposure ofl anyone frame of film. l

2,896,522 Patented July 28, 1959 Fig. 7 is a view of a film strip as made by the camera. The present embodiment is the preferred embodiment, but it is to be understood that changes can be made in the present embodiment by one skilled in .the art without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention. For a detailed description of the invention, reference is made to the drawings. The camera 10 comprises a substantially rectangular case having a hingedly mounted top wall 11, a bottom wall 12,.a ront Wall. 13, -a rear 'wall 14, and two side walls 15. The case 15 divided internally by a horizontally disposed panel 16 into an .upper compartment and a lower compartment. Substantially all of the 4operating mechanism for the camera is mounted to the undersideof the panel 16 within the lower compartment ascanbe 'seenl in Pigs. 3 and 4. A vertically disposed'lpan'el 17 is.'x'nounted to divide the 'upper compartment into a forward lens chamber 'and rearward. film magazine. The various walls and panels of the camera. are formed-mas to be free of any leakage of light therethrough.

For operation thereof, the camera 10 is mounted upon a stand 18. The stand 18 comprises -a hydraulic jack 19, supports20, a subject framing assembly 21,l and `a mounting table 22. The hydraulic jack 19 comprises a piston 23, a cylinder 24, and a pair of foot pedals 25. As is well known in-the art, operation of one of the foot pedals causes oil to be delivered against the piston 23 through the cylinder 24 to cause the piston '23 to move upwardly. Operation of the other foot pedal 25 permits the piston to move downwardlyunder the force of gravity. The supports 20 are disposed about the hydraulic jack- 19 and through a horizontal member 26 to niaintainthe jack 19 in an upright position, as can be seen in Fig. 1. The table 22 is mounted to the piston,23, and the camera 10 is inturn mounted upon the .table 22. Thus operation of the foot pedals '2S will enable one to selectively position the camera 10 in any of a plurality of vertical positions. The subject framing assembly 21 comprises a horizontal guide bar 27, a vertical guide bar 28, and a frame 29. The horizontal guide bar 27 is iixedly mounted at one end thereof about the piston 23 -to thereby-,be raised and lowered -with the table 22'. The vertical guide 'bar 28 is fixedlynsounted about the horizontal guide bar 27 and is slidably mountedthrough a hole in the member 26. The frame 29 is-mounted to ,the other end of the horizontal guide bar 27,-feo that when a person stands 1against the frame 29, the lens 30 is focusable upon their ace.

The focusable lens 30, which is used to project'the imageofthe person-to4 be photographed-rupo'n`l the lm 32, is mounted through -the front wall'13ofthe camera.

The film 32 passes .by an. opening or focal plane 31 provided through the panel 17 as the camera is operated.` The. panel 17 is the forward wall of the film magazine.

A supply spool 33 -is rotatively mounted 'within the filmmagazmeiabout the pin34. .Atilm 'take-up spool 354 fis removably mounted-tothepin 36 which is rotatively mounted within the -lm magazine. .-Th'e film magazine is two idler rollersg37g-land- 38,- a I. tilm'jsproket V39, and a pressure" plate assembly''d. '-'The idler rollers 37 and are mounte'dto be fre'elyr'ot'atable labout j'sitable pins.

The mechanism 52 comprises a shaft' rotatively mounted in a bearing member 5 3' which is tlxedly mounted through' the panel 16. A n atm 54' is rigidly mounted't'o the upper end of the shaft, and a coiled spring 55 connected to the arm 54 and the panel 16 so as to bias the arm 54' andl the shaft' in a counterclockwise direction asvlewed in Fig. 2. A second arm 56 is rigidly mounted tothe lower end'of the shaft and is positioned betweenv two 'microswitchesv57' and 58. 'Ehe microswitches57-=and 58 are mountedto the underside of the panel'16 andareso positionedin relation to the arm 56 thatimicrowiteh 57* is closedwhe'n the film supply spool 33- is-.fullyloade d, andjmicro-switch 58 is closed when tho'lm supply-spool 33h-relatively empty; In the presentembodiment'the micro-'switchcs57'and 58 arefcon-V on the side of the wall 61 opposite from the lens 30 as can easily be seen in Fig. 5.; The mirror 67 is mounted to the front wall 13 in theuppcr compartment by any suitable means, and is positioned with the plane surface of the mirror 67 at an angle of 45 degrees to the panel 16,. immediately over the lens 69, and also at an angle of 45 degrees to the surface of the film 32 positioned against the opening 31. Thus it can be seen that light rays travelling from the-lens 69 are projected onto the llilm 32 on' the other portion of the same frame of film upon which the image of the person is projected. If desired, the wall 61 may be made movable in a plane at a right angle to the film so that adjacent edge portions of the light from the images of the person and the statistics will overlap to register upon the film as a line of variable width. However, it should be noted that the ldensity of the line will vary with the amountjof light at 1- the-.adaeente'dse Portions of the nroectedimages.- I- -The nected-tothe two lamps 59 and 60: For purposes of isfdividediinto two portions-by the wall 61.

The frame 72 compriseswarectangular plate '73 :pivotally mounted at the lower edge thereof to the bottom wall 12 by means of mounting means 74, and a rectangular mask 75 lixedly mounted within an opening provided through the'rear wall 14. The mounting means 74 is formed to 1' a springwhich biases the plate 73 to the upright position. A card 77 is provided for the statistics concerning the person to 'be photographed. The card 77 is positioned between the mask` 75 and the plate 73. The frrme 72 is positioned to be aligned with the mirror 68, and further so thatthe surface of the mirror 68 is at an angle of 45 degrees to the surface of the card 77. When a card 77 is to be inserted into the camera1 the plate 73 is piv. oted downward, the card 77 is placed against the mask 74 whichA may include positioning tabs, andthe plate 73 is returned to the upright position. The two lamps 70 and 71, which are provided as alightl source. for illuminating the. cardl 77, are mounted in suitable lamp bases which are in. mounted to the und'ersideof the panel 16. The lamps 70 and71 are each provided witlif-a'reilectorshield 79.J for preventing any zdirectemissionfof light from the lamps to the mirror '68 andn for directing the light from the lamps, to the-.card"l,7.

Alth'oughin the, present: embodiment" the cain'.8 2 andl the so?" ms'u'wfso-l am@ ssfssfpssifisseafasf te permit I of the gear teeth. A couple of teeth of the gear.43 are curvature of the portion of gear 81 which is void of gear teeth and cooperateswith that portion so .that gear 43 can rotate only when the gear teeth of gear 81 mesh with the gear .teeth of'gear 43. Gear 81 is formed to have sufficient teeth to cause-one half of a revolution of gear 43 for each complete revolution of gear 81. As described above,thegear,;43 is coupled tothe sprocket 39 by means of the shaft 41, therefore rotation of the gear.43 causes a rotation offthe sprocketv 39:.-As the gear 81 rotates in a clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. 4, the gear 43is caused to rotate one halfof a revolution in the counter clockwisefdireotion as viewed inFig.` 4, and the sprocket 39- is rotated ina-clockwise direction as-viewcd in Eig. 2. The movement ofthe sprocket is suicient to position the next frame of lm 32 in the focal plane or opening-31. The pin-838sl mounted tov depend from the lowerV surface of .the'geai'fl 81 and is positioned near the periphery thereof and substantially onthe side opposite from the segment containing the gear teeth. The lever 84 is pivotally mounted between the ends thereof on a bearing 89 which is"mounte'dfto` dependfrom-the underside of the panel 16. ...The link 85 is pivotally connected between one end of the lever 84 and the lower end ofthe lever arm 64. As noted previously, the coiled spring 66 is also connected tothe lower end of the lever arm 64. Thus it-- can be seen that the lever 84 is biased in a counterclock- -`1 illumination af lamp. 5 9 to thereby indicate ioihc opera.

wise direction as viewed in Fig. 4 by the coiled spring 66. The other end of the lever 84 is positioned to cooperate with the pinv 83.- When the motor 80 is operated, the pin 83 moves in a clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. 4 against the lever 84. The lever 84 is then-pivoted about the bearing 89 in a clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. 4, causing the shutter 62 to =be opened through the movement of the link 85 and-the leverarm ,64 against the bias of 4coiled spring 66:- As the pin 83 moves furtherin the clockwise direction', it moves away from the lever84 to thereby allow the lever 84 to return to normal under the bias of spring 66 and to thereby close the shutter 62.' .Since .the pin 83 is on -the opposite side of the gear 81. from the segment having the gear teeth, it can the switch 97 are connected to the. conductors 99 and 100 so that when switch 97 is closed the power source voltage'is impressed across these conductors. Lamps 70 and 71 for illuminating the card 75 are connected across conductors 99 and 100 so that these lamps are illuminated responsive to the closing of switch 97. The primary of transformer 87 is also connected across conductors l99 and 100. Motor 80 is connected in series with spring contacts 93 and 94 of relay 86 across conductors 99 and 100. Conductors 101 and 102 are connected across the secondary of the transformer 87. The winding of relay 86 isl-connccted in series with a push button switch 98 acrossithecondutorsdOI and 102..V Lamp 60 is connected in series with s v`vi tch 58 across conductors 101 and 102,and lamp 5 9 4is connected in series with switchf57 across conductors 101 and 102.

Turning n cxt. t0 af detailed description of the. operation ofthe present embodiment,l reference v is again made to the drawings. I nitiallyLthe camera is loaded with film asshownin Fig. 2, and switcl1 .97 is closed. This'causes' an illumination oflamps 70 and 71 and an energization of the primary of transformer 87.l Since the camera is loaded with film, the.-a'rm.54 will be in its maximum clockwise position as shown in Fig. 2, and arm 56 will be in its maximum counterclockwise positionv as viewed in Fig. 4. Switch 57-will then be closed, and-a circuit j including-the secondary-of transformer 87, conductors 101 and 102, and switch57, will be completed for the tor that the camera-isfully loaded with lm. The plate 73 is then opened and the card 77 containing the statistics -of the. person .to be photographed is placed against the mask- 75V'as previously described, and the-plate 73 is again closed.v The person to be photographed is then positioned against the frame 29.v The pushbutton switch 98 is then momentarily closed.l -This completes the circuit for the energization of relay 86, which then operates be s een that as the motor 80 operates from the position .v

shown in Eig. 4, theshutter 62 will be operated first, and secondly, fthesprocket 39 will be operated. The position shown in Fig. Vtis maintained by. the cooperation between a depressed p ortion of the cam 82 and the pawl-90. The

pawl 90 is pivotally mounted by means of a-bearing to the underside ofthe panel 16. Thepawl 90 normally engages the 4. carxi 82, as seen in Fig. 4, to index the gear 81. The pawl 90 is interconnected-'with the armature 91;#

of therelay 86 by a short 92. The relay 86 may be any-typewell known in the art.' Two spring contacts 9 3 and 9 4 are mounted to the heel piece of relay 86 and are openwhen relay 86 is deenergized. Spring contact 94 biases the armature 91 to the open position to thereby bias'thepawi 90 toward the cam 82 through the link 92,
